perf evlist: Introduce force_leader() method

For non-explicit group (e.g. those created with -e '{eventA,eventB}'),
'perf report' supports a option '--group' which can enable group output.

We also need to support 'perf annotate' with the same '--group'.

Create a new function perf_evlist__force_leader() which contains common
code to force setting the group leader.
